E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Land fires always occur every year in Banjarbaru, South Kalimantan. Land fires have been resolved but they continue to occur every dry season. The purpose of this study was to analyze the social vulnerability of land fires in Banjarbaru. This research method is to use the average population density weight (60%), the vulnerable group (40%) which consists of the sex ratio (10%), the poverty ratio (10%), the ratio of disabled people (10%) and the group age (10%). In addition, in-depth interviews were conducted with 11 respondents who were directly involved in the prevention and suppression of land fires. In general, the social vulnerability that is classified as high is Banjarbaru Selatan and Banjarbaru Utara Districts. High population density causes greater social vulnerability. However, public knowledge, including understanding of the causes and management of disasters, can cause this social vulnerability to decrease so that the risk is reduced.

  • Agriculture Beyond Food Agriculture Beyond Food
    Agriculture Beyond Food Beyond Agriculture Agriculture Beyond Food Agriculture Beyond Food – Experiences from Indonesia Indonesia from Experiences Indonesia strives for green development and the ‘biobased economy’ is an important component Experiences from Indonesia of this ambition. It implies that biomass instead of oil is used as a base for fuels and products, resulting in decreased dependence on fossil fuels. The development was initially greeted with much enthusiasm, as it would help to mitigate climate change and provide new opportunities for farmers. But NGOs and researchers also started expressing concerns that the increasing demand for non-food agriculture would push up food prices and threaten remaining natural areas. Indeed, the growing importance of agriculture for non-food purposes triggered many complex questions; questions that could only be answered on the basis of robust and high-quality research. The Agriculture Beyond Food (ABF) programme has attempted to provide just that. Under its umbrella, Indonesian and Dutch researchers have conducted extensive research to shed light on the opportunities and threats for local communities and the environment. Through this book, the ABF programme intends to share the research fi ndings with a wider audience. It provides the answers to some of the key questions surrounding agriculture beyond food as well as stories from the researchers in the fi eld, and general lessons for policy and practice. The book offers an invaluable resource for researchers, policymakers and practitioners interested in understanding the possibilities of green development in general and the biobased economy in particular.

Rencana ini dibatalkan, dan kota ini akhirnya mulai dilupakan, bias dan membaur dengan perkembangan kota dan diperparah dengan hilangnya arsip sejarah kota tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bagaimana tata ruang Kota Banjarbaru rancangan Van der Pijl. Untuk itu digunakan paradigma penelitian naturalistik yang bertujuan untuk menemukan pola-pola yang mungkin dapat dikembangkan menjadi hasil penelitian. Berdasarkan hasil analisis, diketahui Kota Banjarbaru rancangan Van der Pijl memiliki ke- samaan konsep dengan kota-kota yang dirancang pada awal abad ke-20, yaitu konsep men- ciptakan kota baru di luar kota, pada lingkungan yang masih asli dengan suasana sepi dan lingkungan yang alami. Konsep ini dikenal dengan garden city concept yang diperkenalkan oleh Ebenezer Howard. Kesamaan pola ini juga diketahui dengan adanya satu pusat kota se- bagai area pemerintahan, terdapat ruang-ruang terbuka hijau (taman-taman), dan kawasan perumahan yang lokasinya berdampingan dengan kawasan perkantoran, kawasan perindus- trian, dan kawasan perniagaan.

Coupled with good monitoring result of smoke haze, APRIL observed a consistently good air quality in Riau with average of 13 or 14 µg/m3. Risk maps are still a good predictive power of fire occurrence, as indicated that 80% of fire incidence occurred in high and extreme areas; subsequently, only 3% of fire occurred in low risk areas. APRIL informed that based on the Centre for Remote Imaging, Sensing and Processing (CRISP) data, >90% of hotspots are not fire (commission error). In relation to the FFVP, APRIL plans to focus on the long-term motivation for the Fire Resilient Communities (graduate of FFVP), as well as the rolling out of FFVP to the open market suppliers in 2019.

  • Potency of Social Conflict in the Meranti Islands Regency Rd. Siti
    Potency of Social Conflict In The Meranti Islands Regency Rd. Siti Sofro Sidiq Department of Sociology, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, University of Riau e-mail:[email protected] Abstract Riau Province has a diverse community composition both in religion, race and ethnicity. Plurality is like two inseparable sides of a coin. On the one hand, diversity is able to become a force for progress, but on the other hand it can be a trigger for conflict. If not managed properly, this power will turn into an unexpected potential social conflict. Meranti Islands Regency is part of the Riau Province, an area directly adjacent to neighboring Malaysia. Under these conditions, the vulnerability to destructive social conflicts increases. The high potential for social conflict occurs considering that the welfare of the community is still not evenly distributed, despite the abundance of natural resources and plantation products. Welfare can only be enjoyed by people who live in urban areas or in government centers, while indigenous people who generally live in districts near the border live below the decent life line, do not recognize modern models and lifestyles, minimal education, and limited supporting infrastructure. social life. This disparity certainly creates different social conflicts but has the same potential in breaking the integrity of ethnic groups. The case study is used as an approach in this research to identify the sources, motives and issues of social conflict, explore the causes and map the potential for social conflicts that occur in the Meranti Islands district, as a representation of areas near the border. The selection of the district aims to get the character of social conflicts, so that the data obtained from the mapping can be the main reference in determining prevention or handling efforts, to social conflict resolution mechanisms based on the conditions and needs of various parties.

Medan Merdeka Timur No. 5, Jakarta-Indonesia [email protected] [email protected] Diterima: 1 Agustus 2016, Direvisi: 8 Agustus 2016, Disetujui: 29 Agustus 2016 ABSTRACT As a strategic area, Banjarbaru has a very important influence on the economic, social, cultural in South Kalimantan. The urban growth development of Banjarbaru were influenced by the interaction mechanism of the various related activities. In order to accelerate better interaction mechanism within those activities which are separated by distance, it requires transportation system as path connecting the origin and destination to improve people's mobility services. The urban growth of Banjarbaru has increased the travel needs which required additional public transport services. For this, the existing routes transport need to be evaluated to find out it has meet the travel needs. This study aims to evaluate the existing of public transportation and the route network as the basis for the development plan of the future urban transportation route in Banjarbaru. The research method conducted are field observations, interviews with the users and transport operators, operational survey of the public transport (including travel time, waiting time, and the passengers demand). The results of the study are the utility of public transport in Banjarbaru are still low due to the length of travel time and waiting time. Besides the limited route of public transport network services (there are only two route: route A and route B) thus there are many residential area which are not covered yet.
